Beyond Borders (2003)

I watched Beyond Borders last night and was very impressed. To be honest it was a free rental from blockbuster and I was struggling to find something I actually wanted to watch. Starring Clive Owen and Angelina Jolie it’s a mishmash of various shocking disaster relief death camps… sorry refugee camps, held together loosely around a failed marriage and a one night stand type love story. The ending is shockingly simple and brutal but well worth it even if you do see it coming. Anyone who actually believes that the few coins they put in a charity pot go to the people who need it should watch this film and see a taste of the reality in famine and war zones.
